Overseen in Athens


For years you've been watching your tongue so that what you say doesn't end up here. Now, you'll have to watch how you look. You never know who has a camera.

the uga bus system: now run solely on energy-efficient fuel and the scent of fear

  • (On the Russell Hall bus at the Baldwin and Sanford intersection)
  • Bus Driver: (blaring the bus horn, racing through the intersection as people are jumping out of the way) That's my light, dammit!
  • (Pause)
  • Bus Driver: (laughs) That one girl looked scared! I love doing that!

I have said something similar at that intersection, "Here comes the pain train, this bus will finish you!". But seriously it will, so look before you cross the street and try to be predictable pedestrians.

i think it's amazing how people at a Top 60 university can't walk and think at the same time

I can't believe that transit bus drivers think that's funny. Learn how to drive, seriously. How many times do you folks hit pedestrians each year? I wonder why????

Last time a pedestrian was hit by a bus, it was because she wasn't looking and jaywalked. Guess who got a ticket? Not the bus driver.

@ Windigo

Could it be that people on this campus don't know how to walk across a street properly?

The way I see it, if you get hit by a giant bus that is restricted to staying on the road and making very predictable maneuvers, well, that's just a form of Darwinism. Gotta be able to dodge a 50 foot bus doing 20mph. 5 tons of steel has the right away.

That's like river barges. In Illinois, technically, smaller boats have the right of way before large boats, but it takes a mile for a barge to stop... <_<

Seriously! And if you can't see/hear it coming...take that damn cell phone out of your ear.

A little touchy. Idiot chickens on cell phones aren't the only pedestrians around.
